Lu Yuan pointed ahead and then followed the security guard inside.
Then Lu Yuan explained to Xiao Shan as they walked.
"Actually, it's like this. Last night, a serious landslide occurred at the entrance of that abandoned factory outside the dimensional space, causing many casualties. There's a shortage of medicine there now, so I came here mainly to see if there are any pharmaceutical factories that can produce antibiotics."
"Oh, are you really alright? How many people were injured or killed?"
So, Lu Yuan briefly explained what had happened yesterday to Xiao Shan. After hearing this, Xiao Shan showed a hint of regret: "Those people at the higher-ups are no good. I didn't expect them to be so ruthless as to do such a thing. Alas, it's really pitiful for those survivors!"
Lu Yuan waved his hand slightly: "Sigh, there's nothing we can do now. We can only try to minimize casualties. The temperature there is very high, and building a huge central air conditioning system would put too much strain on our electricity supply. So, in order to alleviate those people's symptoms, I plan to do something to relieve their pain."
"Then why not send them into the dimensional space?"
After hearing Xiaoshan's words, Lu Yuan sighed slightly: "I've been thinking about this issue recently. There are already nearly seven million people in the dimensional space. If we continue to increase the population, it will be a huge drain on our dimensional space."
Since I can't stay in the dimensional space forever, I've decided to stop sending anyone into it from now on. After all, Earth is our home, and we can't always rely on it.
This place is safe, but it's not a long-term place to live, and an even greater disaster awaits us! We don't know the situation in the dimensional space right now, or what changes might occur in the future, so we must resolve this matter as soon as possible!
"Is it time to make some plans for the future?"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly, and then followed the other person into a factory.
There aren't many machines in the factory. It's a simple production line with all kinds of fruits, mainly oranges and tangerines.
The production line first washes the oranges and tangerines, then uses a press to separate the contents of the fruit. The juice is used for production, while another option is to extract the vitamins.
The factory is not very large, with only five production lines, and another exit of the factory is a place that sells orange and tangerine sodas.
This factory has two outlets: one is where soft drinks are produced, and the other is where vitamin pills and medicines are produced.
Seeing this rudimentary factory, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, the middle-aged security guard smiled at Lu Yuan and walked over.
"Mr. Lu, I just asked, and our factory manager is out buying goods and shouldn't be back for a while. Should I call him now and ask him to come over?"
Lu Yuan waved his hand gently: "No need, we're just taking a quick look, don't be nervous! You guys continue with your work!"
The other party didn't know what Lu Yuan was here for, so they could only smile slightly at Lu Yuan and then send the two of them away from the factory.
As they walked, Xiao Shan couldn't help but look at Lu Yuan with some curiosity.
"You seemed a little off just now. What's wrong? This factory is actually pretty good. I think their orange soda tastes quite good!"
Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head: "This is a pharmaceutical factory, yet it's producing orange soda. Don't you think that's ridiculous?"
"But we don't have any experience in manufacturing medical pharmaceuticals here!"
Xiao Shan was also quite helpless. She was aware of the current state of urban development, since most of the factories in their area had been relocated from industrial zones and urban areas.
There aren't many pharmaceutical factories there. The places that have mastered medical and biotechnology are mainly research laboratories. These laboratories and research laboratories can produce some drugs, but their main work is still focused on research.
This resulted in extremely high drug prices, making them unaffordable for almost everyone in the city center, except for mid-level managers or senior executives who were qualified to use drugs developed in laboratories.
Of course, the drugs in these laboratories are much more effective than those produced in pharmaceutical factories before the apocalypse, and their therapeutic effects are also very good. However, the high price makes many people hesitate, and even some middle-class families cannot afford the cost of a single hospital visit.
After walking for a while, Xiao Shan got a little tired, so Lu Yuan helped her sit down on a bench.
"I have a plan now. I plan to expand the scale of the laboratories and then have these laboratories distribute their technology to some people below for production!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Xiao Shan's face showed a hint of surprise: "Don't we have golden fruits now? The golden fruit production factory has been established, and with these golden fruits, we can cure many diseases!"
Lu Yuan shook his head and sighed again: "But we only have one golden fruit tree. Although the golden fruit tree can produce thousands of fruits every day, these fruits are very important to us."
